Fall - Time to Nest

Fall is just a couple of days away...You know what that means at the Soul Pretty Casa...Nesting.

I'm donating tons of stuff to charity this week...to make room for all the wonderful stuff I'm seeing but not buying while on my weekly thrifting missions.

Here I have compiled a couple of inspiration images to help me along the way to cozy...

Huge lampshades are in abundance at the thrift store...always covered in an old, ugly fabric...

Why not remove the fabric and expose the frame...just like this...Hum. May give it a try.

I purchased a replica of this chair a few years ago for my birthday...and have yet to have it displayed properly...it sits in a corner...sad.

This room...sigh. I have two similar plants on my terrace...This image has inspired me to put one in my bedroom when I bring them inside for the winter. Also, the bedspread reminded me that I have a very similar one somewhere...must find.

I have posted this photo before...I just love the colors...

I have a mannequin and I don't know where to put it...

Why not in the kitchen?

I don't see why not...I'll try it...

You know how much I love an ecclectic, boho room...this is my favorite...and I have a DIY idea for a table that I have...I'd love to transform it into something similar to this African Drum Table.

I'm passionate about designing a life that I love. My passion for interior and fashion design begin as a little girl...As a teenager I designed most of my clothes...I have a degree in Fashion Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City...I have worked for some of the biggest fashion and architectural firms in New York City...Today you will find me designing spaces for private clients as well as being a mom to my 15 year old daughter who suffers from Sickle Cell Disease...While being a single mom to a special needs child requires most of my attention...I still make time to seek out creativity wherever I can...be it my sewing machine, at the flea market, thrifting...while traveling or just entertaining at home with my family and friends...I live in New York City...what more inspiration does a girl need...? Stop by often to see what's inspiring me on any given day.
